Pros & Cons
Pros
Windows 11 seems to be more accommodating to 6e hardware. New software brings in advanced mesh capabilities. For those considering an upgrade, this router is a solid choice.
Gotta say. Here's my take on how it's been performing. It's pretty bright, and even sets off my motion detection camera at night. Great fast and powerful router.

Cons
No ethernet cable or other items. The 5g just straight up disappears and isn't visible until a reboot. There are great specs under the hood but it constantly is dropping wi-fi devices.
Highlights

It’s easy to do and unlocks a wealth of new features that significantly improve the router's performance.

Acer really delivered a capable router with this premium tier wi-fi 6e gaming router.
Competitiveness
Deducted a star because parental controls are lacking compared to some other brands with offerings at this proce point
Ran some tests comparing it to my old wifi network, and this router's download and upload speeds more than doubled that of the old wifi's.
In terms of speed, on the 5 ghz band i got ~400 up/150 down, compared to the netgear orbi i had which got 280 up/100 down at th... Read More

In four months weve only experienced two brief outages which were quickly resolved by rebooting our isps modem – not a fault of the router itself
